Fair enough

Socialism is not the answer to anything first of all, and most people already shop locally (within 10 miles of their house)...who wouldn't? Not to mention, solar panels? You going to buy those for me? Solar panels are very expensive and to have enough of them to power a house would be way too expensive...that's not a solution until the costs get lowered greatly.

Solar panels could never provide all the power, but if every roof had solar panels on them, the combined energy produced would certainly help. In the UK, you can get grants for this sort of stuff, including wind turbines, solar water heaters, loft insulation, cavity wall insulation, double glazing..............
